This tutorial will guide you through the process of installing NewsDash on Debian latest. NewsDash is a command-line application that retrieves news from different websites and presents them in a clear and concise format.
Before we begin, make sure that you have the following prerequisites:
NewsDash requires Python 3 and a few libraries to run. You can install Python 3 and the required libraries using the following command:
sudo apt-get install python3 python3-pip libxml2-dev libxslt-dev
The next step is to clone the NewsDash repository to your machine. You can use the following command to clone the repository:
git clone https://github.com/buzz/newsdash.git
Once you have cloned the NewsDash repository, navigate to the newsdash directory and install NewsDash using pip:
cd newsdash
pip3 install .
After the installation is complete, you should be able to run NewsDash by typing newsdash in your terminal.
By default, NewsDash retrieves news from a few popular news websites. However, you can configure NewsDash to retrieve news from your preferred sources by specifying them in the configuration file. To do this, copy the sample configuration file to your home directory:
cp newsdashrc.example ~/.newsdashrc
Then open the ~/.newsdashrc file in your favorite text editor and add the URLs of the news websites you want to use. You can find a list of supported websites in the newsdash.py file.
To run NewsDash, simply type newsdash in your terminal. By default, NewsDash will retrieve and display the latest news from the configured sources.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed NewsDash on Debian latest. You can now use NewsDash to stay up-to-date with the latest news from your favorite sources.
